Iranun is one of the more than fifty indigenous languages of Sabah, Malaysia, on the island of Borneo. Like many of the world’s ethnolinguistic minorities at the turn of the millennium, members of the Iranun community have been concerned about what they perceive as a decline in the use of their ethnic language among the younger generation. Their concern is that their children, who are required to learn the national language, Malay, for formal education, are achieving fluency neither in their mother tongue, nor in the national language. In addition, community members are concerned about the amount of cultural heritage and knowledge that is being lost as the older generation dies. In an effort to promote the use of their mother tongue and preserve their heritage, the Iranun community has begun several language development projects. These include developing a written form of their language, using computer technology to develop a library of mother tongue literature, and planning a mother tongue pre-school program as a means of enhancing their children’s cognitive functioning and improving their acquisition of Malay and later English. The key emphasis in these activities is that they are developed as people-centred and community-based processes. Karla Smith is a literacy specialist and works for the Summer Institute of Linguistics (SIL). Karla Smith The Iranun’s Strategy for Language and Culture Preservation There are estimated to be some 15,000 Iranun speakers in Sabah. They are mainly found in one district on the West Coast although Iranun is also spoken in a few villages in another area in southeastern Sabah. The Iranun are Muslim and many live on the coast, earning their living from the sea. Others live further inland and have adopted an agricultural lifestyle cultivating rice and vegetables. The literature lists them as Illanun or Lanun, but Iranun is the name preferred by the Sabahan Iranun, meaning ‘longing for a certain place’, which they say conveys their love for their homeland.

Some cases of our internship in host companies It should be understood that doing intern in China is a cultural and linguistic experiences and not an obvious first step on the career path even our center offers assisting services for permanent job hunting for international students in China as separated service. In the work session, day to day involvement in the operations of a Chinese organization provides perspectives about culture, values and habits that cannot be learned in the classroom or in textbooks. Insights into work methods and socialization patterns are developed while interacting. Trainees benefit from experiencing Chinese society in a professional setting where exposure to colloquial language improves their own language skills.

    Japanese Culture Tips: Drinking with the Japanese
    Drinking is a time for sharing, and a time to relax and unwind from the days events. Here are a few tips to remember when drinking with others. Number one rule: You should never pour your own drink without pouring for others first. Beers come in large sizes for sharing! Sake is served in flasks with many cups for sharing! This is the golden rule. Beer is served both on tap and in bottles, but the thing to remember in Japan is that the beers are bigger! Beer in Japan comes in as large as 2 liters, but 500ml bottles are the most common size at restaurants and bars, as it is the perfect size for sharing! If you are drinking beer from bottles, Japanese beer glasses are generally small (appx. 8oz) which leads to a lot of pouring and a lot of toasts, and shouts of kampai (cheers)!
